Configuring IBM DS6000 systems
You must configure the IBM® DS6000™ system for attachment to a Storwize® V3500.
- Configuring the IBM DS6000
The IBM DS6000 provides functions that are compatible with the Storwize V3500. - Supported firmware levels for the IBM DS6000
The IBM DS6000 must use a firmware level that is supported by the Storwize V3500. - Supported models of the IBM DS6000 series
The Storwize V3500 supports models of the IBM DS6000 series of controllers. - User interfaces on the IBM DS6000
Ensure that you are familiar with the user interfaces that support the IBM DS6000. - Concurrent maintenance on the IBM DS6000
Concurrent maintenance is the capability to complete I/O operations to an IBM DS6000 while simultaneously completing maintenance operations on it. - Target port groups on the IBM DS6000
The IBM DS6000 uses the SCSI Target Port Groups feature to indicate a preferred path for each logical unit (LU). - Sharing an IBM DS6000 system between a host and the Storwize V3500
You can share an IBM DS6000 system between a host and a Storwize V3500 clustered system. - Quorum disks on IBM DS6000 systems
The Storwize V3500 can choose managed disks (MDisks) that are presented by a IBM DS6000 system as quorum disks.
